Hi,
do enjoy the site, always looking for new information that can help. I am aware that supplements such as saw palmetto are of ill comparison to the strength of finasteride. But what if you were to create a sort of daily routine which followed suite to the same components finasteride has such as rather then popping a pill of propecia you were to:
keep cholesterol intake low to possibly decrease your testosterone levels
1-3 cups of green tea a day
daily intake of supplements which include moderately large amounts of saw palmetto,nettle, beta sitosterol and lysine
omega 3′6′9
vitamin b complex
daily multi vitamin of good quality
and also I have heard that to much vitamin A could possibly worsen the effects of male pattern baldness is this true? thanks
Saw palmetto (http://www.baldingblog.com/2008/04/07/using-saw-palmetto-to-treat-hair-loss/) does not work the same way as finasteride, and hair growth with it is less predictable. It is always good to live healthy and have a low cholesterol diet. Any good thing in excess can be bad for you (such as overdosing on vitamin A).
If the regimen you outlined works for you, then I would stick with it… but from a medical and scientific point of view, I doubt it will grow hair.
